Hey all I'm having brain surgery on Tuesday

Hey guys, I know I haven't been around much lately, but school, school, caoching and my wife having some medical issues has me swamped. Anyway, I am having brain surgery on Tueday to remove a non-malignant tumor that I've been carrying around for a while. It is right on the surface of my brain and under my skull, so it should be pretty non-invasive.

I'm going to ask that you keep my wife in your thoughts and prayers more than myself. I'm not worried but she is really stressed. I can't wait for Tuesday to get overwith for her sake. Anyway, thanks in advance and I hope you all have a blessed Thanksgiving if you celebrate it and a wonderful week!

Re: Hey all I'm having brain surgery on Tuesday

He is a really good guy. He is from Chicago, graduated from U of Iowa, IUPUI, and got his medical degree from IU. We sat and talked for a long time on each appointment and he answered my wife's questions, she is a nurse, to her satisfaction. My two quiestions were: 1. Can you record the procedure or at least take a pic. He said he would take a pic to the joy of my 6th graders. 2. Would the metal mesh/plate be magnetic? No to that since it is titanium.
